Download or read book Shock-Wave Solutions of the Einstein Equations with Perfect Fluid Sources: Existence and Consistency by a Locally Inertial Glimm Scheme written by Jeff Groah and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2004 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonstrates the consistency of the Einstein equations at the level of shock-waves by proving the existence of shock wave solutions of the spherically symmetric Einstein equations for a perfect fluid, starting from initial density and velocity profiles that are only locally of bounded total variation.
